Why set_viewport_overlay is rated Medium
An AI agent can call set_viewport_overlay faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Blend Ai by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs set_viewport_overlay safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Blend Ai, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For set_viewport_overlay, this is the rule to start with:
set_viewport_overlay stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Blend Ai, apply this rule, and every set_viewport_overlay call is checked against it from then on.
